UK Politics Thread (Part 1)

They should just employ Kopstar to publish long lists of mind numbing statistics that prove that everything is ok

Hang on hang on. I havenā€™t caught up with reading all the EU and CJEU stuff yet and now weā€™re onto the Covid response.

UK politics is a rollercoaster these days

Most rollercoasters have ups and downs - we currently only seem to be seeing downs - maybe more of a waterslide?

yeah. Iā€™m trying hard to get to grips with this B word thing that is unfolding but itā€™s a proper minefield.

Why I couldnā€™t say. Itā€™s almost become some morbid fascination.

Itā€™s at the bottom of Page 8 Iā€™m told.

No apologies from anywhere within government.

You forgot ā€œLeveling upā€

Steven Barclay has had a bit of a beasting from Nick Ferrari and Susana Reid this morning. But nothing will change, with excuses raining in including, people ignoring rules, he was trying his best blah blah blah.

WTF? How? Did the UN visit a pub in Suffolk? Are the UN on Whatsapp?

These bastards just fucking fail their way through life with barely a feather ruffled.

Imagine if you or I had catastrophically (like, ā€˜people diedā€™) failed in our jobs, and ended up getting sacked for breaking our own rules to continue nobbing a mistress. As if weā€™d bounce happily into a new position.

I hadnā€™t realised Ed Woodward had already left to head up recruitment at the UN?

Anyone got Dominic Cummings on Twitter? A few gems in there over the last day apparently.

Yeah, I follow him but havenā€™t seen his timeline over the last few days. Will check it out later. Heā€™s nearly always saying people are shit, incompetent, corrupt, thick or any combination of those four so it can be quite amusing. He thinks both Johnson and Starmer are clowns, incidentally. Obviously, nobody is as intelligent as him and heā€™s angry more people arenā€™t listening to him and doing as he says.

Pretty sure heā€™s continuing on that line. Said as much in an interview yesterday.

I think there are some stand out things heā€™s said.

a) We were always going to renege on the Withdrawal agreement

b) Cheating foreigners is a core part of the job.

Please dont take the above as read before seeing his actual words.

Pie nails it as usual - taking aim at the Tories and Labour alike.
